We don’t always have to go to the store and buy things everytime we want to give our homes a new look. All it takes is creativity and resourcefulness – transforming existing materials found in your house to give it a new purpose.

In this easy project you get to design your pillows with your favorite colors. 🙂

2. Cut the fabrics according to your design, and stitch the shapes together.

3. Press the seams open, like in this picture.

4. Use a solid-color fabric for the back part of your pillow.

6. Turn right side out, iron, and insert your pillow form.
